Samuel Kent Lumpe

the world is still a mess, but I remember how sam tried to make it better.

hard to believe it's been five years. when I volunteer with the food bank, or go to sam's favorite coffee house, I remember sam. he was a good man with a big heart.

When i started volunteering at the food bank in 2006 Sam had been there for several years. We had some "discussions" about who would ride in the truck, but Sam always won. Sam had a gruff exterior, but he would literally give you the shirt off his back. He was like the big brother i never had. We will all miss you Sammy.

Sam was part of our family at the Food Bank of Northern Nevada for many years. Sam spent thousands of hours together with his friend Roger and our distribution team providing food to those who needed help. Sam's many friends at the Food Bank remember him fondly and will miss him always.

I am so sorry for your loss. I hope Jer. 29: 11,12 brings you some comfort during this difficult time.

I bartended at Brickies Tavern for many years. I knew Sam very well. He was a humble man and always had a smile on his face. I used to work Thanksgiving every year and make a full course Thanksgiving feast for those who had no family to celebrate this day with. Sammy was my favorite of all.I always made sure there was left overs so that he could enjoy them the next few days.I will miss your face Sammy. Your friend Carlena
